Chapter 560 Apology and Redemption

Josie’s voice sounded muffled and distant, yet Dexter managed to hear it. He reached out and grabbed her wrist, his body temperature almost scorching her skin.

His grip was strong despite his weakened state.

Feeling the pain from his firm grasp, Josie furrowed her brows as she stubbornly placed a pill by his lips and handed him water. But he didn’t open his mouth, causing the water to spill over.

Covered in sweat, Josie called, “Dexter, Dexter?”

The pill melted in Dexter’s mouth, its bitterness perhaps unnoticed amidst his condition.

Josie couldn’t do anything else but observe that he didn’t spit it out. Deciding to withhold the water, she silently resolved to let him endure the discomfort.

With that in mind, she gently laid him back down and prepared to leave. However, her wrist was firmly grasped, and she found herself pulled into Dexter’s embrace.

In a hoarse voice, he whispered into her ear, “Stay with me.”

The warm touch reached Josie’s skin through their clothes, causing her to furrow her brows in discomfort.

He remained with his eyes closed throughout, yet he relied on his senses alone to recognize her presence, tightening his grip even more.
